This guide will show you how to remove key parts to access the SSD. The SSD provides the laptop with external storage for performance.

SSDs have a limited lifespan, and over time, the factory-installed SSD in a laptop will age and eventually run out of usable storage. You would have to change the SSD. Getting extra data/storage provides the laptop with better performance power and space to render applications. This process should only take a maximum of 20 minutes to complete.
